I have read "Victims No Longer". It's a great book. It was actually the first book I read about abuse. There's a lot of good stuff in there. It helps survivors understand more about their feelings and actions. I also read the 2nd book by Mike Lew, "Leaping Upon The Mountains". It's a very good book but probably better for men in later stages of recovery.

Gentlemen,

Here's another title you both may want to look into: ABUSED BOYS by Mic Hunter. It just came out in paperback.

I read this, maybe 6 months ago, or less. It was very good.

I read Male On Male Rape about 2 months ago. And I thought it was excellent. Since, I work with parolees, men who've been incarcerated, I found the section on prison rape very helpful, although it wasn't nearly as lenghty and in depth as I would have liked.

I shall look into this book -thank you very much!

Anything to help, Neil.

Anything in particular that I should be aware of?

I'd like to recommend "In my father's arms" by Walter DeMilly. It is very well written and has a good flow that does not just deal with pain. It has a good feel for recovery from incestuous abuse with a good range of anger to acceptance/healing that you don't see that often in male survivor literature.

THANKS KEN......I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THAT BOOK BUT I'LL DEFINATELY CHECK IT OUT.
